Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 707: Raid on Medicine Fairy Club

Zhang Zhiwei used his power to roll up a black cloud, and carried everyone towards Zengjia Town.

Above the black cloud, Lu Ci, Lu Jin and others only felt the light dim, and then their vision turned around, their eyes were full of thick black energy, cold winds were blowing all around them, and their bodies were flying rapidly.

After adapting themselves, they focused their Qi in their eyes and looked around, only to find that they had already reached an altitude of more than a thousand meters.

Changjun City is right at your feet, and you can have a panoramic view at a glance. The people coming and going below seem as small as a group of ants.

"Is this flying in the clouds? Senior brother actually has this legendary skill?" Tian Jinzhong said in surprise.

Zhang Huaiyi was also greatly shocked. In various mythological stories, there were many scenes of gods riding on clouds and monsters raising black evil winds to abduct people.

But in reality, there are only a few people who can do it. I didn't expect that my senior brother would be able to do it quietly, but...

He looked carefully at the rolling black energy that was holding him up. Why did it look so much like the evil wind created by monsters in mythology?

Lu Jin and Lu Ci were also shocked, especially Lu Jin, who was the disciple of Zuo Menzhang. After Zuo Menzhang reached the third level of Ni Sheng, he could transform his entire body into Qi and control the white Qi to fly in the clouds.

Senior Brother Zhang could also do this, but the current situation was obviously not something that could be achieved by reversing one's life. He wanted to ask, but there were fierce winds all around, and rumbling sounds were exploding in his ears. He couldn't even hear what he said.

Zhang Zhiwei ignored his friends' doubts, this was actually a method used by Tiantong Qimen.

After opening the Qimen Bureau, one uses one's own Qi to leverage, utilize, and command the natural forces of heaven and earth, just like the principle of leverage, which can move a large object with a small force.

During this process, the consumption of his own Qi is not that great, so he can carry so many people and fly long distances.

But if one uses the triple-level Qi transformation ability of reverse birth to carry someone flying, then all of one's own Qi will be used.

Although you can use the Saint Thief to restore yourself, the energy contained in the air is not high. If you are flying long distances, it will be a considerable burden. Compared with flying with the Tiantong Qimen, the cost-effectiveness is much worse.

Zhang Zhiwei rushed nearly 50 kilometers in one breath and arrived at Zengjia Town.

When he told Zhang Dafoye that the Medicine Fairy would be in Zengjia Town, Zhang Dafoye was very surprised, because this was once the place where Zeng the Barber trained his troops.

During the Taiping Rebellion, "Zeng the Barber" established a local militia called the Hunan Brave. Later, as his power grew, more and more such places appeared, and Zengjia Town was one of them.

These Hunan Braves were later known as the Hunan Army. They were given the task when the army was defeated and were ordered to fight in times of crisis. They defeated the Taiping Army and put down the Taiping Rebellion. It can be said that they were the greatest contributors to the end of the previous dynasty.

But when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs are cooked. How could the previous dynasty tolerate an army formed by a group of Han people?
So after the end of the Taiping Rebellion, the Hunan Army was quickly disbanded, leaving only more than 20,000 people, and the rest all retired.

How many of these soldiers who have fought in wars, seen blood, and massacred cities are willing to return to farm work and become law-abiding farmers after encountering injustice and being sent home?

In addition, the country was in turmoil at that time. The previous dynasty was overthrown, warlords were in power, and all kinds of harsh taxes and levies were crushing people.

Therefore, these old soldiers who had once been invincible, relying on the courage and banditry they had acquired during the war, scattered in the mountains and became bandits and horse thieves.

Zengjia Town is such a bandit village.

Because they are all veterans of many battles, their combat effectiveness is often much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. The warlords bully the weak and fear the strong, and do not want to lose their troops on them, so they ignore them.

"It's a chaotic place where bandits gather and warlords don't care. No wonder the Medicine Immortal chose to set up his lair there!" Zhang Zhiwei thought to himself.

Amid the rising clouds and mist, Zengjia Town is already in sight.

"This is the territory of the Medicine Fairy Society. The Medicine Fairy Society is good at using Gu. Everything around here could be their eyes and ears. Let's go in and investigate the situation first."

After saying that, Zhang Zhiwei flew towards Zengjia Town.

There is a main road at the entrance of Zengjia Town. Perhaps because there are frequent vehicles and horses passing by, the road is quite flat.

Soon, he flew above Zengjia Town and looked down from the air, taking in everything in the town.

The layout of the entire town looks quite neat, with high walls on the outside and tiled houses lined up inside. The long street is a bit simple, but it is bustling with people.

The crowds were shoulder to shoulder, it was very lively, you could see children playing and peddlers selling goods along the street, it looked very lively.

However, everyone soon discovered something weird in this lively scene.

Zhang Huaiyi said in a deep voice: "It's almost evening now. This kind of bustling market-like scene shouldn't appear at this time. It's a bit strange!"

"I also feel something is strange, but I can't tell what's strange about it." Lu Jin said with a frown.

"If you don't know, you can just keep silent instead of saying meaningless nonsense!" Lu Ci said unhappily.

Lu Jin took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said, "I don't want to quarrel with you at this juncture. I'm just expressing my feelings. I do feel something is wrong."

Lu Ci stopped laughing at Lu Jin and said in a deep voice: "They are indeed not normal. Although they look lively, this is just a general view. If you look at each individual, you will find that their behavior is very rigid and dull. They don't have... they don't have the spirit of a living person!"

Zhang Zhiwei did not comment. A golden ripple flashed in his eyes, and he immediately discovered that the Qi on these people's bodies was very mottled, as if covered with mold spots.

If you concentrate your eyes and look at these people's heads, you can see a ball of insect-shaped black energy surging inside, which is a sign that the poisonous insect has entered their brain.

Zhang Zhiwei's heart sank, and he said, "You are all right. The people in this town are indeed very strange, because they are all Gu people whose brains have been eaten by insects."

"Although they look normal now, they are actually zombies. As long as a living person approaches here, they will rush over like a flood and tear them to pieces."

Hearing this, several people were suddenly startled and looked down with incredible expressions on their faces.

"All the people below...are they Gu people whose brains were eaten by Gu worms?"

The degree of madness of the Medicine Immortal Society was a little unbelievable to them.

You know, in this year, the population of a town is often over a thousand.

A big town like Zengjia Town, which is half inhabited by bandits and half by farmers, has a total population of several thousand.

"Has the Medicine Fairy gone mad? This is a big town, why would he turn all the townspeople into poison people?" Lu Jin said with a puzzled look on his face.

Zhang Zhiwei said: "Judging from the Qi that is covered with mildew spots on their bodies, they should not have been turned into Gu people for long, because over time, the Qi on their bodies will dissipate, leaving only the black Qi on the Gu insects."

"As for why they did this..." Zhang Zhiwei paused and said, "Perhaps it was because I killed the Jiangxi Governor and the Gu worm in Zuo Qian's body, which alerted the enemy. That's why the great Gu Master of the Medicine Fairy Association turned all the people in this town into Gu people for defense."

Lu Jin frowned and said, "With just a little suspicion, the great Gu Master of the Medicine Fairy Association turned them all into Gu people. This behavior is really damnable. Quan Xing is nothing compared to them." Zhang Huaiyi said, "But it must be said that the Medicine Fairy Association's actions were decisive and effective. If the people who came this time were not my senior brother, but other ordinary people, or people from the warlords, they might have encountered big troubles, or even been wiped out."

Zhang Huaiyi continued, "Think about it. If we hadn't participated, and Zhang Dafoye brought a large number of people to this town to follow the clues, and what greeted them were not the bandits from Zengjia Town, nor the strange people from the Medicine Fairy Association, but thousands of fearless, crazy, and powerful zombies, what would happen?"

Zhang Zhiwei said: "If it is a warlord, without the firepower support of heavy weapons, it is impossible to stop these Gu people with just rifles!"

Everyone thought about the scene. If thousands of zombie-like poisonous people rushed up, ordinary soldiers would probably just drop their guns and run away.

Even if it is the alien forces, there are probably not many who can stop these thousands of poisonous people in the entire alien world. Even if they can really stop them, it will be an extremely difficult task.

During this period, the Medicine Immortal Association will have enough time to evacuate.

Looking at the bustling crowd below, Lu Jin sighed. Even though he already knew the result, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhang, do you think there is still a chance to save these people?"

"His brain has been eaten out. There is no chance." Zhang Zhiwei said lightly.

Lu Jin stopped talking.

"Brother Zhang, how should we deal with these poisonous people?" Lu Ci said, "Shall we go down and kill them?"

Zhang Zhiwei looked at him speechlessly, he was indeed one of the two reckless men.

"If we go down to deal with these poison masters, wouldn't we have fallen into the trap of the Medicine Fairy Society? To catch a thief, we must first catch the leader, and we must first eliminate the people of the Medicine Fairy Society." Zhang Huaiyi said.

"Indeed!" Zhang Zhiwei nodded and said, "Just because of some suspicion, the other party can bring out so many Gu people. It shows how low their bottom line is. If we kill them directly at the door now, who knows what they will do."

"Brother, what are you going to do?" Tian Jinzhong asked.

"Didn't Huaiyi say it before? To catch a thief, you must catch the leader first. In order to prevent them from doing something irreparable, we have to kill them all first." Zhang Zhiwei said.

"How to kill them? Do you know where the people from the Medicine Immortal Society are?" Zhang Huaiyi asked.

"Look ahead!"

Zhang Zhiwei controlled the black cloud and flew forward for a distance, and arrived at the back mountain of Zengjia Town.

The place was shrouded in mist and smoke, the green mountains were shrouded in thick fog and there was deathly silence.

But the strange thing is that although the fog there is thick and keeps rolling, it never reaches Zengjia Town.

It seemed as if there was an invisible object separating them. On the side close to Zengjia Town, the sky was clear, with no wind or fog, but on the side close to the back mountain, there was thick fog.

"There seems to be something wrong with this fog," Zhang Huaiyi said, "but I'm too far away to tell what the problem is."

"You will know soon!" Zhang Zhiwei stood in the clouds, stretched out his hand, and the true Qi in his palm flowed out, and he captured a small cloud of mist from a hundred meters away.

Zhang Huaiyi reached out and touched the mist, and he felt a vague sense of reality.

After thinking for a while, he snapped his fingers, and a ball of sparks appeared from his fingertips. The moment the sparks touched the mist, the mist was directly ignited. A slight burning sound was heard in the air, and finally it turned into a ball of ash and fell down.

Zhang Huaiyi caught the ball of black ash and twisted it with his fingers. He felt it was extremely light and thin, as if it didn't matter. He began to think carefully.

"Can this fog be ignited?" Lu Jin and Lu Ci were both surprised, and then they each had their own ideas.

Lu Jin's thought was: "Gas can also be ignited, this fog is probably poisonous."

Lu Ci's idea was: "This fog can be ignited, we can use fire attack."

Tian Jinzhong felt that there was something strange about the fog, but he couldn't tell what it was.

Zhang Huaiyi discovered something strange: "That fog... looks a bit like... extremely fine silk threads!"

Zhang Zhiwei smiled and waved his hand. A strong wind blew up out of nowhere, causing the fog to roll.

In an instant, it was as if a thin gauze was lifted, revealing the scene covered by the gauze.

It turned out that behind Zengjia Town was a huge valley with some peculiarly shaped buildings and human figures walking around from time to time.

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened: "Is this a trick, or is there a Qi situation here?"

"This is witchcraft!" Zhang Zhiwei pointed at the thick fog and said, "Look carefully, there are some small things floating in the fog, and even on the stone walls on both sides of the valley, there are many small things!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw some fast-moving small dots in the fog, but they were too small and obscured by the thick fog to be clearly seen.

But on the mountain walls on both sides, the thick fog was blown away a little by the strong wind caused by Zhang Zhiwei, so they could see clearly.

There were actually a large number of small spiders crawling densely on it. There were so many of them that it gave people goose bumps at a glance.

These spiders are spitting out fog, and the thick fog that covers the entire valley is actually spit out by them.

"Silk, the mist is actually spider silk!" Everyone reacted.

Zhang Huaiyi said: "If fog is the silk spit out by spiders, then the thick fog in front is the web woven by spiders. Generally speaking, spider webs have the ability to trap and warn. If we go in rashly, the people of the Medicine Fairy Association will definitely know in advance. I am afraid we will fall into a trap."

"What do you mean by walking into a trap? With Senior Brother Zhang here, what do we have to be afraid of? Can't we just charge in directly?" Lu Ci said.

Zhang Huaiyi didn't want to waste time talking to the reckless man.

Zhang Zhiwei said: "We don't know yet if there is a secret escape route in the valley. It would be too reckless to charge in directly."

"Moreover, if we rashly go in, the Gu people in the town below will definitely riot. This is like a time bomb."

"If they rush into the valley, it's fine. But if they spread out, it will be troublesome. There are some villages and towns near Zengjia Town that rely on paying protection fees to Zengjia Town. They may suffer some unexpected disasters."

"Besides, no one can determine whether these people have some other poisons. If a plague is set off, it will be difficult to deal with."

After listening to what Zhang Zhiwei said, Zhang Huaiyi asked, "So what do you mean, Senior Brother?"

Zhang Zhiwei said, "You stay here to look after the Gu Masters in this town, and I will use my skills to sneak into the valley and kill all of them."
